My BF blames himself for his father's stroke
His dad is going through stage 4 cancer and recently had a pretty awful stroke(non verbal and partially paralyzed). He's managing in the hospital, but they don't expect even 2 weeks. Prior to this, it was an estimate of around 4 months.
He told me his father called him the other day and sounded a bit upset and said he was confused before hanging up-- at the time, I don't think my bf knew what to think. Once his family found out about the stroke, my bf has been believing that he should have realized from that call.
Our relationship is long distance and I want to say what I can, but I don't know the right things to say. I'm trying to be supportive but I feel like I'm not doing that good of a job.
